RenZan stent check for leg artery narrowing
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial follows how well the RenZan stent works and how safe it is for people with blocked or badly narrowed thigh-to-knee leg arteries. It may help by improving blood flow and adding careful monitoring to see how outcomes compare over time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older.
- You need a signed consent form and you must agree to return for scheduled follow-up visits.
- Your leg artery problem should match specific severity: ankle-brachial index (ABI) 0.9 or less, plus symptoms from mild/moderate pain to severe, but not the most severe category.
- Your narrowing/blockage is in the common femoral, superficial femoral, and/or popliteal artery, with more than 50% narrowing or a total blockage.
- You should have good access to the blockage so the doctor can pass a wire and open the area enough to place the planned stent properly (they decide based on the procedure).
- You must be able to take “dual blood thinners” (dual antiplatelet therapy) and any needed blood-thinning medicines, unless there’s a medical reason you can’t.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests a new type of stent (called ZENFLEX Pro) to open blocked arteries in the leg. The stent helps improve blood flow and may reduce leg pain and help wounds heal, and may be a good option if your blockage is in the thigh or behind the knee.
This study is testing a new drug-coated stent for blocked arteries in the thigh or behind the knee. It may help people with moderate to severe leg pain or wounds by improving blood flow without needing surgery.
This trial studies a new “smart” stent placed in the thigh-to-knee artery to treat significant blockages. It may help improve blood flow to the foot, and you would be followed closely to see how well the stent works over time.
This trial tests a special balloon that releases medication to help keep leg arteries open. It's for people with narrowed or blocked arteries in the leg, either above or below the knee.
This trial studies whether placing a small stent in a severely narrowed kidney artery can improve outcomes for people with high-risk, artery-hardening kidney blood-flow problems. It focuses on people whose high blood pressure or kidney function has been getting worse despite multiple medications.
This trial tests a new dissolvable stent that slowly releases medicine to keep your lower-leg artery open. It is for people with severe leg pain or small wounds due to poor blood flow, and who are not eligible for other stents.
